Healing at Capernaum

February 1, 2021 by Tamara Dix

Greetings FCC Family, It is hard for me to believe that the first month of 2021 over! I still feel as though I have a foot in the season of Advent, but here we are halfway through Epiphany and I am preparing for Lent. Yours truly is gaining an even deeper respect for my pastoral… Read More →

Get in the Word

October 21, 2020 by Tamara Dix

Dear FCC family, What a privilege it is to have this medium through which to speak to you! With this weekly update, I have a rare and precious gift: an opportunity to be heard. There are many human beings who will rarely, if ever, have the opportunity to speak and be heard – but every… Read More →

Getting to Know You

October 21, 2020 by Tamara Dix

“The steadfast love of the LORD never ceases, the LORD’s mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.” (Lam. 3:22-23, NRSV) Greetings FCC Greensboro family, It was a joy to worship with you, in-person and virtually, this past Sunday. I feel like I have come home. Saying the… Read More →

The Gifts Our Members Bring

September 12, 2020 by Tamara Dix

The support from members of the congregation in  leading worship has blessed us beyond anything we might have expected the past few weeks. Olivia Steadman, for instance, delivered last Sunday’s message with a freshness and passion that brought us to the edge of our seats with excitement. This coming Sunday, Woody Faulkner, assisted by Elder… Read More →

A Couple of Sundays Away While You’re Busy Anyhow

August 16, 2020 by Tamara Dix

Next Monday (August 17), I’ll have surgery to restore some strength to my vocal cords, which, I hope, will allow me to speak in more than a whisper throughout the day. As much as I’ve been able to project so as to bounce my voice off the far wall of many a sanctuary, it’s frustrating… Read More →

Nudging Toward Togetherness

July 17, 2020 by Tamara Dix

This past Sunday, our church Board approved a plan for Outdoor Worship (weather permitting) to begin August 2. The location will be the sidewalk and lawn between the sanctuary and the playground. Physical distancing must be observed; if it isn’t, this will jeopardize the opportunity for future gatherings. The plan projects holding two shorter services at times… Read More →

Finding Our Summer Path

July 17, 2020 by Tamara Dix

The Sundays after Pentecost are called Ordinary Time—all the way until Advent. About half of the year is “ordinary!” This doesn’t have to mean they have to be mediocre, middling, or mundane, though. The word “ordinary,” as used to describe these Sundays, comes from “ordinal number,” which means a number in a series. In other… Read More →

Thanks for Your Responses

July 17, 2020 by Tamara Dix

. . . To the survey about the conditions under which you’re willing to regroup for worship. As of mid-week, we have received 39 replies, which will be used by our Board, along with recommendations from our Covid Response task force, to plan ahead. Two measurable certainties must be established before our doors can open:… Read More →

Anxious to Talk about Racism

June 8, 2020 by Tamara Dix

A group of us, on Sunday evenings twice a month, had begun discussing the book by Professor Carolyn B. Helsel, Anxious to Talk About It: Helping White Christians Talk Faithfully About Racism. We had hoped our study would lead to some meaningful conversations with some brothers and sisters from Mount Pleasant Christian, our predominately African-American… Read More →

A Pentecost Unlike Any Other

June 1, 2020 by Tamara Dix

Even if the church in ages past has celebrated Pentecost Sunday in the midst of a plague or pandemic, there never has been any such occasion as we anticipate this Sunday. In the past, I can imagine a time when Christians found physical distancing necessary although I’m not sure they observed such restrictions. The unprecedented… Read More →
